 BIOSECURITY ON A
CANADIAN PIG FARM

A new viral or bacterial disease on the farm can

be devastating if adequate measures are not taken to limit farm income. Therefore, all the
personnel (owners, doctors, office and production personnel) involved in the activities of the
farm must comply with the measures suggested for it. Limit vehicle entry.

Diseases are introduced and transmitted directly and indirectly.

Directly through replacement animals, repopulation and from mothers to children. Indirectly
due to wind, vehicles, people, equipment, water, food and animals outside the farm.
To prevent those diseases, an instruction manual on preventive measures was prepared to
have a sustainable and profitable production.
